143 drug dealers have been arrested following a police crackdown on drug peddlers and syndicates in Chitungwiza and Harare.
So far police have raided areas like Mbare, Chitungwiza, Mabvuku, Epworth, Dzivarasekwa, Glen Norah, Mufakose, Southview, and Highfield which are festooned with drug peddlers, who range from pushers to suppliers, with links to international drug trafficking rings.
The Herald reports that in raids that were carried over the weekend, police busted drug havens where they recovered drugs such as marijuana, ganja cakes, and a prohibited cough syrup called BronCleer (bronco).
They also found the dealers selling illicit brews such as “musombodhiya” and illegal aphrodisiacs such as Oto and Blue Diamond pills as well as skin lightening creams such as Diproson.
Hard drugs such as cocaine and Crystal Methamphetamine commonly known as “mutoriro”, “dombo” or “guka” were also found at the raided bases.
In an interview with the publication yesterday, national police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi said law enforcement agents are stepping up the fight against drugs in the country.
According to Asst Comm Nyathi, police recovered Crystal Methamphetamine and Ephedrine drugs from Privilege Munetsi, Oto Pills from Anastasia Murudzirwa (52), and Blue Diamond pills from Marjory Moyo. One Portia Chekuenda was caught with 46 grams of crystal methamphetamine, while the house of Faith Sithole (40) in Mbare was also raided and 7 grams of Crystal Methamphetamine was discovered along with two, 8kgs of cocaine.
Containers of illicit drugs and blankets were also burnt to ashes as youths from the neighborhood used the structure as their drug base.
As of now, Asst Nyathi said, some of the cases are before the courts while more peddlers will be brought to face the full wrath of the law after thorough investigations.

From investigating the crash to gathering evidence like driver logs and maintenance records, a skilled lawyer builds a strong case for maximum compensation.

Victims of truck accidents often face medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress.

The Evolution of Education in the Digital Era
Education has undergone major changes due to advances in technology and digital learning systems. Traditional classrooms are increasingly being complemented by online learning platforms, virtual classrooms, and educational applications that provide students with flexible access to information and academic resources.

One of the biggest advantages of digital education is accessibility. Students from different parts of the world can access quality educational content through the internet regardless of geographical location. Online courses, video lectures, and digital textbooks allow learners to study at their own pace while balancing work and personal responsibilities.

Technology also supports personalized learning experiences. Artificial intelligence systems can analyze student performance and recommend customized study materials based on individual strengths and weaknesses. Teachers use digital tools to simplify grading, improve communication, and enhance classroom engagement.

However, digital education also presents challenges. Limited internet access and lack of digital devices remain barriers for many students, particularly in developing countries. Excessive screen time and reduced face-to-face interaction can also affect learning experiences and social development.

Despite these challenges, experts believe technology will continue transforming education globally. Investments in digital infrastructure, teacher training, and online learning systems are expected to improve educational opportunities and support future workforce development.
